Leo in Tarot and Astrology

Big and bright Leo comes into focus in August as summer grinds into its hottest month. The fruit of Cancer is now moving toward the seed that will be harvested for the next growing cycle. The sun is is strong and powerful. It depicts the personality. The planetary Sun rules Leo and in Tarot Leo is represented in the Strength card, so this month we will study Strength and Sun card extensively. a As a fire sign Leo is also is seen in the whole of the Suit of Swords.

As we focus on powerful Leo we encounter our second fixed sign of the year.

The fixed signs have a remarkable ability to perservere, and often they're models of solo productivity. They enjoy those peak moments of achievement, but seem most at home with themselves when immersed in a sustained, worthwhile, challenging pursuit.

For Fixed fire (http://astrology.about.com/od/foundations/p/FireElement.htm)(Leo)this can mean a career of self-expression, and ongoing respect in their chosen fields.

Bring your cards and a notebook. We will start with a discussion session and then break into small groups for practice with readings.

I am asking for a $5.00 contribution to cover expenses. No one is turned away for lack of funds.
